Citta Invicta: L-Isla: This city built by Grandmaster Claude de La Sengle is
also locally called L-Isla, referring to Isola Point on which it was built behind
Fort St Michael.

Meaning:
It is the pattern of the coat of arms of the kin of
Grand Master Claude de la Sengle, who gave the city
its name.
Source: Information was given by a member of local Labour Party. I
have not seen the flag, only the coat of arms.

At
http://www.my-malta.com/interesting/Senglea_history_JVR.html can be found
the arms of Grand Master Claude de la Sengle, as
usual quartered of the Malta Order (Gules a cross Argent) and of whatever arms
each Grand Master used — La Sengle had Or on a saltire Sable five scallops
Argent and this is the usual coat of arms of the Local Council of the Maltese
city bearing his name, L-Isla/Sanglea.
At
http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~republik/coatofarms.html, however (and
perhaps in other sources), the quartered coat of arms is used to represent the
L-Isla/Sanglea Local Council.
